Mod List: Matte Black Kidney Grill It has been three years already since I first received my key to this gorgeous E90 LCI 335i. Words can't describe how excited I was, how thrilled I was coming back home from the dealership. As soon as I got home, first thing I did was black out the front grills, and yes I chipped my front bumper while taking the grills out...OUCH!! But man Matte Black kidney grill looked so sick...and things started happen. I have been a long time lurker on e90post, and admired so many sick bimmers...to pick one "M3THIS" was what made me choose Alpine White, I even PM'd him about stuffs he did to his car...when I found out how much he spent on his car I was like I was keep telling myself...matte black kidney will do....it will do...screw it! Modding has begun First, I needed a shop to take my car in for works, I was searching through E90post.com and found a man name Long Tran. He wasn't a shop, a guy working out of his garage, hmm interesting. I searched and read alot about him, how he helps out the e90 community with his skills and creativity. After going through few thread I decided to PM him. My first visit was to get VMR V710 & Toyo T1R....with fake HRE caps Since then I built great relationship with Long Tran, now he is one of the most reputable BMW shop in Southen California, LT BMW. So here I am after three years of owning this bimmer that I want to share with everyone here on E90Post. 12.11.2011 Mod Lists: Exterior ------------------------------------------------------------------- Porsche GT3 RS Grey Paint OEM M3 Front Bumper w/Deleted Side Markers OEM M3 Headlights OEM M3 Side Mirrors OEM M3 Front Side Panels w/Deleted M3 vent OEM M3 Rear Bumper + OEM Performance Rear Bumper OEM M3 Side skirts OEM M3 Rear Quarter Panels OEM M3 Spoiler OEM M3 Hood OEM CF Mirror Covers M-World GT4 Dry CF Lip Voltex 1S CF Wing IND CF Roof Duke Dynamics Quad Diffusor Matte Black Kidney Grill Huper Optik 40% All Around CF Hood/Trunk Emblem Interior / Lightning -------------------------------------------------------------------- OEM Performance Electric Steering Wheel Ver. 2 OEM Performance MT Shift Knob w/Alcantara Boot OEM Performance e-Brake Handle w/Alcantara Boot OEM Performance Seats OEM M3 Gauge/Cluster OEM EU LCI Tail Lights OEM M3 Headliner Custom Performance BMW rear seat AutoPower Rollbar Painted White Schroth Harness Carbon Fiber Interior Wrap OSS LED headlights Braille light weight battery w/HP Autowerks Battery Mount ER CF Engine Cover painted Fire Orange LED Interior Light Kit Valentine 1 Hardwired Alekshop Rear View Camera P3Car Rixter Vent Boost Gauge Phllips 5000K HID Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Emblem Suspension / Brake / Wheel --------------------------------------------------------------------- KW Clubsport Coilover OEM M3 Front Strut Brace OEM M3 Front Sway Bar OEM M3 Rear Sway Bar OEM M3 Tension Strut Front R/L OEM M3 Wishbone Front R/L OEM M3 Wishbone Rear R/L OEM M3 Bushings OEM M3 Regulating Rod HPA Adjustable End-Links Brembo GT 'Fire Orange' - Front: 6 Piston 380mm Brembo GT 'Fire Orange' - Rear: 4 Piston 345mm HRE C93 19x9.5 / 19x11.5 Hankook V12. 245-35-19/285-30-19 Volk TE37 SL 18x10.5 All around + 10mm H&R Spacers Front Nitto NT-05 275-35-18 Project Kics Neo Chrome Lugs 90mm Stud Kits Performance --------------------------------------------------------------------- Vishnu PROceed V5 Rev.3 Vishnu PWM Methonal Injection Kit Vishnu Chargepipe Vishnu DCI GRuppe M Carbon Fiber Intake Forge Diverter Valves Ver.II Active Autowerks Intercooler Evolution Racewerks Competition Dual Oil Cooler BSH N54 Oil Catch Can ar design Catless Downpipes Vanguard Performance Custom Quad Exhaust w/Resonator Delete AWD Motorsports Billet Stock Frame N54 Turbo upgrade Quaife Limited Slip Differential ---------------------------------------------------------------------- LTBMW Long!

This car is definatly awesome. I would be interested to know how much money you have invested into this E90. Also with all the M3 parts installed wouldn't it have been cheaper to just buy an M3?
Either way we all do what we want to our cars and I want to say this ride is top notch! LTBMW FTW!!!
